We examine the magnetic loss of three kinds of thin films consisting of roll-pressed Ni-Fe, sputtered Ni-Fe and roll-cooled amorphous Co-Fe-Si-B. Impedance measurement reveals that the magnetic loss of these metals becomes higher as their permeability increases. The noise reduction characteristic of thin film filters is evaluated by the S-parameter measurement technique. We can obtain the same noise reduction as a conventional ferrite filter with a thin film filter of 1/30-1/7 its volume. These results indicate that the use of magnetic metal thin films is advantageous with regard to minimizing noise filter size.","PeriodicalId":296175,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124991871","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The fully anechoic room offers several advantages over the open area test site. Immunity to high ambient signal levels, the capability of being located in metropolitan areas close to the customer base, more uniform field over a larger area a reduction in test time since there is no need to scan the receiving antenna in height, and the capability of being used for both emissions and susceptibility testing. Measurements of site attenuation in a fully anechoic room show excellent correlation with the mathematical model for normalized site attenuation in free space.

These measurements were made in the frequency range 200-1000 MHz, using fields established at 40 V/m and 50 V/m. Both horizontally and vertically polarized fields were established. The resulting fields in the interior of the vehicle were measured at 21 locations. Figure 1 shows the schematic for the measurement. Due to the growing use of cellular phones, it is important to the vehicle manufacturer to understand how the fields generated by these devices will react with the structure of the vehicles in which they will be used. Cellular phones are generally used with an exterior antenna, but in many cases the transmitter is located on the inside of the vehicle. The antenna therefore, acts to excite the resonant cavity that is composed of the vehicle passenger compartment. How the cavity is excited is dependent upon the location of the excitation device. The measurements to be described show how the fields distribute on the interior in the presence of an exterior field illuminating the vehicle from the forward direction. Both horizontal and vertical illumination were used.","PeriodicalId":296175,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126271599","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
